Full details
The Gardena Water Spray Lance (60cm) is designed for gardeners who need extended reach and comfortable control when watering. Its key benefit is reducing hand fatigue during prolonged use with a lockable trigger and ergonomic design. A potential consideration is that the soft spray pattern may not be suitable for all watering tasks. This lance offers a 600mm reach, a soft spray pattern, adjustable water flow, and built-in frost protection for durability.

FAQs
What type of spray pattern does this lance provide?
The Gardena Water Spray Lance provides a soft spray pattern, ideal for gentle watering of plants and delicate areas.
How do I engage the lock function?
Once you squeeze the trigger to your desired water flow, there is a separate mechanism or button on the lance that you can slide or press to keep the trigger held down, allowing for continuous water flow without continuous squeezing.
Is this lance suitable for high-pressure cleaning?
No, this lance is designed for watering with a soft spray pattern and is not intended for high-pressure cleaning tasks.
Can I use this lance in freezing temperatures?
The lance features frost protection, meaning it is designed to withstand freezing temperatures without damage when stored correctly and not under water pressure. It's still recommended to drain and store it indoors during prolonged periods of freezing weather.
What is the length of the lance?
The Gardena Water Spray Lance is 600mm (approximately 23.6 inches) in length.
Does it come with hose connectors?
The lance itself typically features a Gardena quick-connect fitting for easy attachment to a hose. You would need a standard garden hose and corresponding male connector if your hose does not already have one.
How do I store the lance when not in use?
The lance includes a hanger attachment specifically for quick and easy storage. It is recommended to hang it in a shed, garage, or protected outdoor area.
Troubleshooting
Water leaks from the connection point
Ensure the hose is securely attached to the lance. Check the O-ring or seal within the connection for damage or debris and replace if necessary.
Water flow is weak or inconsistent
Check that the water supply is fully turned on. Ensure the water control on the lance is not restricting flow excessively. Inspect the hose and lance for any internal blockages.
Trigger is difficult to squeeze or lock
Check for debris around the trigger mechanism. Ensure the lance is properly connected and water pressure is not causing undue strain. If issues persist, inspect the trigger mechanism for damage.
Water sprays unevenly or in an undesired pattern
The lance is designed for a soft spray. If the pattern is distorted, check the spray head for blockages or damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure your garden hose is connected to a water source and turned on.
- Firmly attach the Gardena Water Spray Lance to the end of your garden hose. Gardena products typically use a quick-connect system, ensuring a secure fit.
- Adjust the water flow using the control on the lance head.
- Squeeze the trigger to begin watering. Engage the lock if continuous flow is desired.
Compatibility:
The Gardena Water Spray Lance is designed to be compatible with standard garden hose systems and other Gardena connection pieces. It utilizes Gardena's patented quick-connect system for easy attachment and detachment.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the lance with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the plastic or metal components.
- Storage: Store indoors or in a protected area, especially during winter. Use the integrated hanger for neat storage. Ensure the lance is disconnected from the hose and any remaining water is drained before long-term storage, particularly before freezing temperatures occur.
- Winterization: Before the first frost, disconnect the lance from the hose, turn off the water supply, and drain any residual water from the lance to prevent internal damage from freezing.
